Siemens Named in Gartner 'Magic Quadrant' for PLM in Q4

“We are particularly gratified to have been positioned in the leaders quadrant, which we believe reflects our success in balancing the UGS-Siemens integration with our continuing ability to perform well in the market and stay clearly focused on supporting our customers,” said Tony Affuso, chairman and CEO of Siemens PLM Software. “In the meantime, we continue to advance our vision of enabling Global Innovation Networks, which the world-class resources and commitment of Siemens will strengthen as we go forward.”

“With its Teamcenter 2007 portfolio, Siemens PLM Software supplies the digital PLM backbone that keeps more than 40 BSH factories around the world consistently updated with the latest product information,” said Uwe Tontsch, head of IT for Product Development and Industrial Engineering Solutions, BSH. “The product consolidation in Teamcenter 2007 has lead to the creation of a total solution portfolio. While there is still progress to be made, Siemens PLM Software is very well positioned to support BSH with its current and future PLM requirements in the area of digital product development and digital manufacturing. They are the right choice as a strategic PLM partner for BSH and they gave us full confidence they could help us achieve our product development goals.”

According to Gartner, Inc., “Manufacturing PLM leaders command not only a firm grasp of today's evolving PLM market conditions, they also see and convincingly communicate the future opportunities of cross-functional, enterprise-oriented PLM applications that support commercial activities with product-centric content.” The evaluation process involved the assessment of companies’ overall viability; its product; sales execution and pricing, and market responsiveness and track record. In addition, Gartner considered each firm’s market understanding, and its marketing, sales and product strategy.
